UQ Teaching Fellowship - Embedding Indigenous knowledge in the training and development of the health workforce

Investigative Team: Mr Condy Canuto, Associate Professor Jon Willis, Professor Murray Phillips, Dr Leanne Coombe

The aim of this project is to develop a suite of Indigenous health modules to be delivered in courses across the HaBS Faculty. A module will be developed according to the needs of the individual Schools within HaBS to ensure content is discipline specific and is aligned with each School’s curricula and accreditation requirements. The project deliverables from Phase 1 will include a summary report of mapping exercises, feedback from stakeholder interviews and key findings of principles/guidelines for implementing the Indigenous content in each School. Phase 2 deliverables will be a suite of online modules which focus on Indigenous knowledges, Indigenous health knowledges, ethics and culturally aware professional practice, and reflective exercises which align with the discipline specific accreditation guidelines.
